also offered a Rodenstock 300mm APO-Ronar f9 MC lens on a Copal 1 shutter. Serial 10489149 - for $400US but 300mm is getting too long for me

Midwest Photo Exchange (Dead Link Removed) has a Caltar II-N, which is the same lens, for $469. If this is from a private seller, $540 seems kind of high, but I am having a hard time finding this exact lens anywhere, so I am not really sure.

Thats about what McBrooms is listing it for, so he is trying to get high retail, for that particular lens, I would probably offer him about 20% less.
